Rate constants have been determined by UV spectrophotometry at 25 °C for the acid-catalyzed dehydration of different types of monocyclic arene hydrates including those substituted at the 1-, 2- or 3-positions. General acid catalysis was not observed, and linear plots of pseudo-first-order rate constants for dehydration against hydronium concentration were obtained. A Hammett plot of the second-order rate constants for acid-catalyzed dehydration, kH (M-1s-1), of unsubstituted- (8a), 3-substituted (8b, 8c, 8d, 8e) and 1-substituted-benzene hydrates (14f and 14h) shows an excellent correlation with σ+ values and yields a large negative ρ-value of -6.5. The results are consistent with rate-determining formation of a benzenium ion in which direct mesomeric interaction with the substituent occurs, presumably permitted by the coplanar arrangement of the diene and carbocation centre in the intermediate. Data points for 2-substituted arene hydrates (13f, 13g, 13h, 13i) deviate negatively from the Hammett plot as direct mesomeric interaction with the substituent is not possible in the corresponding benzenium intermediates.

Relative Thermodynamic Stabilities of 3-Ethylidenecyclohexenes and Isomeric Ethylcyclohexadienes

The relative thermodynamic stabilities of the E and Z forms of 3-ethylidenecyclohexene, 1-ethyl-1,3-cyclohexadiene, 2-ethyl-1,3-cyclohexadiene and 1-ethyl-1,4-cyclohexadiene were determined by t-BuOK catalyzed chemical equilibration in DMSO solution.From the variation of the equilibrium composition with temperature the enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs energy differences between the isomeric species were evaluated.The ethylidenecyclohexenes were found to be the most abundant species at thermodynamic equilibrium, owing to their 9-12 kJ mol-1 lower enthalpy values.The entropy term, however, favors the cyclohexadienes by 7-11 J K-1 mol-1.
Isomerisation de dienes-1,5 fonctionnalises par le fer pentacarbonyle

A series of various, functionnalized 4-vinylcyclohexene derivatives, substituted with electron-withdrawing or -donating groups on the exocyclic double bond, have been isomerized by pentacarbonyliron, under thermodynamic control with heating, into a mixture of conjugated cyclohexadiene tricarbonyliron complexes, of which the 2-substituted derivative is the predominant.When ferrous chloride is used as the co-catalyst, the isomerisation proceeds under kinetic control to give the 1-substituted cyclohexadienetricarbonyliron complex as the major derivative.Reaction mechanisms, have been proposed for these isomerisation processes, which provide a new selective route to such derivatives.The formation of η4-1,4-cyclohexadienetricarbonyl complexes as intermediates has been excluded, and it is shown that the thermal isomerisation proceeds via η2-complexes that are formed by successive 1,3-hydrogen shifts.
